So winter is upon us and like any naturally warm acclimatised individual, I face the issue of what to do with my barnet. Sure a simple grade 1 all round is presentable and easy to manage. But:- does it prevent the heat escaping the top of my head NO, does it defend me against the beating of a cold winter chill NO, does it offer to make me hot chocolate as compensation, NO.

I’m writing this with a heavy heart. Why must women choose to weave? This age old question has plagued me since the 80’s. The decade that shouldn’t be mentioned! An extensive faux pas in fashion garments (who didn’t have jackets with shoulder pads that could take out your shadow), technology and funny enough hair. The mere notion that bigger was better really confused a lot of us. Let’s not even talk about mobile phones back then (no pun intended).
